Do all custom firmware version have the same modem?. Which ones have one that are different?. I am trying to work through some speed issues with a Poco F3 global. The same sim in a Huewei Mate 10 Pro produces 3g HSDPA 850 / 900 and 4g aws 1700 speeds are 5x faster consistently. The Poco F3 is slow and it seems like the modem firmware is bad.
custom roms do not have their own firmware for the modem,only the stock rom updates firmware,you can also run the firmware only packages to update that while staying on a custom rom.
the only exception is xiaomi.eu but it uses the china firmware versions.that is also why when moving from xiaomi.eu to an aosp rom you have to flash the stock rom first.

Hi, I just bought an Redmi Note 5 Pro 6/64 on AliExpress, and it came with an unlocked bootloader and what it seemed to the a global ROM of MIUI. I didn't update because of ARB, since I read that it could brick my device, and it was ARB 3 so I didn't wanted to flash anything official. So I installed TWRP and flashed custom ROMs, but it seems that on every ROM I install I get no signal detected, I have to manually toggle a lot the network toggles to MAYBE get my Redmi Note 5 Pro to pickup signal. I'm just wondering if anyone has gone through this and how did you fixed it? I don't really want to flash the official global ROM to get it fixed properly. Thanks.

What version of MIUI are you on? You can check the version and flash the firmware only for that version. That should, in theory, fix any signal issue you got.

Right now I'm on Masik X 1.0, but it also happens in every aosp based ROM.

yes, because firmware isn't rom dependant. Like i've said, check if you're on ARB4 or 3 and flash a firmware depending on the result (be very careful).
Hey. i have red magic 5G china version how i can put the global version
model: NX659J
there is any global official ROM available
THANK
Right now there is no official Global ROM for download, there is only the official China ROM from Nubia, and Black Magic 5G custom ROM which is a Global Clone based off of the official China ROM release, it's very close to being a Global Clone from what I've been seeing but haven't been able to get it working on my 12/256 Global. The only things I know so far is Black Magic 5G Doesn't have an App Drawer or NFC working yet, but given how ambitious the Dev is, it shouldn't be long before this is fixed.

Can you please share the link for these ROM's? Also, do you know if there is a developer doing a custom ROM right now? If it is, who is?
I was looking for something related to ROM's but I can't find anything.
Hello
Not sure why you want to change to global rom. But if it's for calls and text messages to work in the USA. You really just have to fastboot flash the non-hlos.bin file. Which is the modem. If it's cause you want nfc and your a cn version phone. Never gonna get it. Nfcis not on the cn version at all. And it's blocked by a script. I can give you the non-hlos.bin file I flashed to get global phone services. But a warning!!! If you flash this file you will not receive ota updates. And if you do. It will fail to update. Apparently when I flashed that modem. It changed how the phone recieves ota updates

Yes, you can, I also have the Chinese version smartphone, but had several problems, including in the 4g that had no network.
Simply download version 4.09 and put in the main directory of the phone, go to update, click on the three dots on top right and choose manual update, then you choose the downloaded file and update without problems.
I have an Indonesian Poco F3. Since Novemeber last year I'm using it with the global firmware and a custom ROM. Back then the only recommended firmware for the ROM was global and I just sticked to that. However, other Regions are also recommended now and I was thinking about switching to the fitting region. But so far I didn't encounter any issues with the global firmware.
Are there any benefits when switch to the region specific firmware, compared to global (I use the phone in Europe at the moment)?
What are really the differences between those firmwares? I couldn't find any useful information on that. I can not image there are hardware differences, since I use another region for several months now and didn't encounter any issues.

The differences are in the themes and some apps like Music which is limited depending on the region where you use the phone, the Indonesian has call recording like the Taiwain and China (Miui dialer) the other Google dialer and google messages, EEA rom for Europe applies GDPR or GDPR.
A lot goes to the Indonesian for the Miui dialer and which has several languages unlike that of China which remains the most evolved.
EUXM=EEA Europe
MIXM=Global
TRXM=Turkey
RUXM=Russia
INXM=India
JPXM=Japan
IDXM=Indonesia
TWXM=Taiwan
CNXM=China
DEV=Public Beta
Have you tried these roms, better than stock and Miui dialer.

Nice to know, but I was not talking about the ROM, its only about the firmware.

" I use another region for several months now and didn't encounter any issues."
You have changed the rom version, the firmware is included.
The firmware allows the os to work and is specific to your device.
For example: Chinese firmware is for Chinese rom rom.
Whatever the region of the firmware their size is identical and contains exactly the same files but the coding is different.
Xiaomi EU rom use firmware Global ou Chinese to be able to adapt their roms to all devices.
For AOSP roms it's different, since they don't use MIUI OS, the OP can recommend any firmwares.
You can see here that the size of the roms is different according to the regions.
https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/alioth/
And that the firmware have the same size
https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/firmware/alioth/stable/V13.0.7.0.SKHEUXM/
https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/firmware/alioth/stable/V13.0.6.0.SKHCNXM/
Firmware is a type of software that is etched directly into a piece of hardware. It operates without going through APIs, the operating system, or device drivers—providing the needed instructions and guidance for the device to communicate with other devices or perform a set of basic tasks and functions as intended.

I use Lineage, there is no firmware included. In fact, users have problems when using the wrong firmware all the time.

In firmware you have only your phone drivers,like Bluetooth,wifi, network.In regions,the different things in fw are modem and audio drivers.This is why if you flash wrong fw you will have problems with your network/wifi connection and video/audio will be laggy.

Hey bro, as I said the firmware is not included in the custom ROM. You need to extract it from official ROM. See here: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/alioth/fw_update
Again my question is if anyone *KNOWS* what and if they are differences in the different Firmware regions, and when to use which region. I don't care about the ROM, my question is just about the firmware.
You confuse CUSTOM ROM as Xiaomi Eu rom and AOSP ROM which are most often port rom from Google Pixel.
Hi, I have tried all the custom ROMs here on XDA for RMX3360 (Indian Variant) but none of them supports either of Indian 5G operators (Jio & Airtel). Though all ROM's have option to select 5G networks in settings but none of them sees Jio or Airtel 5 networks even in manual search nor let me connect to either. I have both operators with 5G working on stock ROM. Can any developer please add support for Indian 5G operators to their Custom ROM. I loved the clean stock feeling of Custom ROM's but no 5G is a deal breaker.
Or else, since 5G works on stock ROM can anyone guide as to how to extract specific files for 5G support from stock ROM and add them to any Custom ROM. I am technically sound so should be able to do it with some guidance.
Just for FYI, even stock ROM didnt work on 5G till update C10, from C11 update 5G support was added for Indian operators. So I guess C11 update is what needs to be checked and integrated into Custom ROM
Does any costum rom support 5g
Why is it that 5g not working on costum rom
Elixir Rom supports 5G only on Sim 1

Dude did u find the solution im also facing it.
So i switched from EEA to Indonesian ROM for MIUI DIaler, but i'm curios does it have different firmwares for modem, bluetooth, wi-fi etc? Cause i'm scared that my mobile internet may work worse because of it. Unfortunately, I did not take a screenshot of the modem firmware version on the EEA ROM, on Indonesian ROM it's MOLY.LR13.R1.TC8.SP.V2.P59
no , Im using Indonesian ROM for more than 1 year no problem

According to the information I found, they do have different baseband firmware compared to other ROMs
